Is your law firm's website doomed to fail?

As potential clients continue to search for attorneys online, law firms must prioritize digital accessibility. This means making sure technology is available to a wide range of users, including people with disabilities.

Update your SEO for voice search. You are likely aware that using one’s voice to control internet- connected devices, including speaking search engine queries, is on the rise. But did you know that voice search has significant implications for search engine optimization? See what your law firm needs to know.

Promote your content effectively

Lawyers should think about promotion from the time at which they begin a piece of content until they gain viewers. They should also understand the ways people share content. It is seldom the case that one significant share is followed by an outpouring of shares.

Can we stop the spread of propaganda online?
As details continue to emerge about how foreign powers are using social media to manipulate voters, governments are beginning to try and fight back.

Boost email conversion rates
Email marketing is a great way to build a relationship with your target audience. Ensure your emails do not get lost among the loud marketing messages and competitive subject lines bombarding recipients daily.
